Interior Clock

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Interior Clock

Post by Dan the 480 Man » Mon Jan 31, 2005 6:47 pm

Hey People....

Just a general quic question. I've changed my analogue clock for a digital clock (from another 480), but i'd like to change the colour of the display. Is this as simple as a coloured bulb, or do i need to change anythng else?

A bit of a girlie question, but no harm in asking!

Cheers,
Dan M

bulb is "bulb coloured" think you would need to take it apart and look to see if there is a coloured film in front of the screen.

yep, the bulb is clear and the color filter is behind the LCD glass.

Cheers for that...

The coloured filter...is it just a case of substituting it for something else, or do i need special material?

Dont worry if nobody knows! I'll have a tinker...

Later!
